Rama: Greater Albania stupidity, term of others to create a dangerous monster

Prime Minister Edi Rama has described the idea of ​​a Greater Albania as nonsense. During an interview given to Euronews Serbia , Rama said that the term "Greater Albania" has never existed in the language of Albanian officials, but according to him, it is a term that originated outside Albania and was encouraged by those who wanted to create a dangerous monster. While Greater Serbia, according to the head of government, has always been mentioned.

Rama said that either the peoples of the Balkans will have a stable perspective and will have their place in the European Union, or different things can happen. According to the Prime Minister, the idea of ​​union within the EU is an idea that transcends ethnic divisions and gives everyone the opportunity to be free to move, to trade, and according to him, this is mainly about removing borders.

Everyone says that this region needs European integration and a clear path to the EU, mainly for the sake of stability. But whenever a kind of blockade appears, strong rhetoric appears in these integrations in all the countries of the region. In the case of Albania and Kosovo, then we are talking about a greater Albania, followed by Belgrade's response.

Listen, it was not me, it was Jean-Claude Juncker, if I remember correctly, he was neither Serb, nor Albanian, nor Montenegrin, nor Macedonian. He was from Luxembourg. Bourgeois from Luxembourg. He said there are two alternatives for the Western Balkans. Full integration or war. If I were to say it, it would be characterized as a call to war. I admit it, said in a very open and unrelated way, but it's true. For us, in the region, the European Union today is still what it represented for its founding fathers. A place where we can finally be free and safe and where we can finally decide our own destiny and not let others decide for it. And that is why it is so important.

But you said that the unification of Albania and Kosovo is inevitable and indisputable and that it will happen either through the European Union or as a reaction to the blindness and laziness of the European Union.

I said it and I can repeat it, not as my program or my wish, but as my analysis. Because it was not Jean-Claude Juncker's program to wage war in the Western Balkans. It was not his personal attitude, but an analysis. The analysis is simple. Either the peoples of the Balkans will have a stable perspective and will have their place in the European Union and the family of European countries, or different things can happen. Everything has happened in the past, why can't it happen again? What has changed? Only one thing has changed: in the past, the EU did not exist as an election and it does exist today. The European Union is the one that can lead us to the future. Anything else can easily take us back to the past.

A mund të thuash, si një mesazh për qytetarët e Serbisë, zyrtarët ose këdo në rajon – “Jo, nuk do të ketë Shqipëri të madhe”?

Para së gjithash, duhet të dini një gjë. Shqipëria e Madhe nuk ka ekzistuar kurrë në gjuhën tonë dhe nuk është një trillim që kam gjetur në librat tanë të historisë ose në disa mendime dhe trashëgimi të mendjeve tona të mëdha. Shqipëria e Madhe është një term që ka origjinën jashtë Shqipërisë dhe është inkurajuar nga ata që dëshironin të krijonin një përbindësh të rrezikshëm, i cili natyrisht do të ishte shqiptar i rrezikshëm. Shqipëria e Madhe është marrëzi më vete.

Pra, është një makth, siç thatë ju, një makth i Serbisë.

Yes, but Greater Serbia is also something that has always been mentioned. But the idea of ​​union within the European Union is an idea that transcends ethnic divisions. These are exactly the four European freedoms, to give everyone the opportunity to be free to move, to trade, to have the opportunity to move capital, services and, to conclude, in my opinion, this is mainly about with the removal of boundaries. This is very important and then no one will care about what you mentioned.
